I'm glad to see "The Sims: Brettski Edition" put to good use.

I notice one aspect is contrary to what I think of as the conventional (but not necessarily the best) layout of similarly sized abodes. That is your placement of both bedrooms on the ground floor, and the kitchen and full bath upstairs. Typically IME the "living" room and kitchen are placed downstairs in such structures and (at least) one bedroom upstairs. Would you care to expound upon the thought process that has led you and Dski to this layout?

Also, I see the woodburner upstairs in the "great room" but do not see space allocated for any other utilities (furnace, hot water tank, water softener, etc.). Where are you planning to put stuff like that? In the garage area, crawlspace, ???

P.S. I am sure you will take good notes, which may be of use if/when Fish Wife and I put our retirement cabin next to one of the ponds here.
